Notice and Note: Contrasts and Contradictions

Contrast and Contradictions

What do you think that looks like in literature?

Can you think of any examples?

When a character behaves in a way that contradicts with how they were previously behaving

When you come across this, STOP! Ask yourself:

Why is the character acting this way?

What could come out of this event? Make a PREDICTION

As we read this next chapter, see if we can find any contrasts and contradictions in behavior

Make a PREDICTION about what will happen next

When we annotate this, highlight it in RED

Keep an eye out for AGAIN AND AGAIN as well!
